    Exclamation Ventrilo Server?!

    Ok, I have thought about this for abit, I know that PS3 has its own voice chat. But I want to be able to offer more to our members.

    Ventrilo is a online voice chat program, where several members can join, and talk with each other using there computer. The quality of this voice chat program is better in some cases then your phone. It also costs a small fee to have a decent server operational, and this is why I opened this thread. it is free for members to join.

    I want to know how many members would use this program, if it was offered to them. You can use it to more easily chat with team mates during hot battles rather then typing. You can also use it just to socialize with other members and get to know each other better.

    So, here's the question again... If such a program was available to you, would you use it? it is free to use.

    I'd use it I guess, I had a vent server for a long time and I would use it for DOMO which is an aeriagame. The problem is having a dedicated always on server that could be utilized by anyone at anytime. but for the original question, you have my vote

    If I started one, It would be on a dedicated server, either I would rent a server that has good review with ventrilo, or I would have it hosted on a friends server and pay him for it.

    It would be up at least 95% of the time, it not more depending on server updates.

    seems like the poll system isnt working right... state your opinion on the matter in reply posts for now untill I can figure out the problem with the poll.


    Thanks.

    I find it easy to just use a bluetooth headset (as usual) but call my friend who plays the same game on our mobiles, we are both on O2 so its free calls, but obviously this only works if you are on the same network.

    Not too sure how Ventrilo would work, (did read the notes but still unsure) if it is easy to set up, not time consuming and reliable then yes, I would love to try an alternative.

    I've used Vent before, back when I played Star Craft for the PC. I understand the basics about it, I find it pretty cool. It makes playing a game with someone, who's on the other end talking to you, more fun!

    Would I use it if it was offered? YES *rawr*

    well and I think the PSN chat puts a limit of how many people can be in the same room. In vent you could have 20 people in the same room. perfect for strategies or when you are just bored and want to say hi to us forum peeps.

    I don't visit these forums much and just started to use them a bit but for the record if you care to know I have a vent server I am currently doing nothing with (used it for a wow guild long story short I quit wow) and wouldn't care if you want to use it. It has a 50 person capacity and yes is a always on persistent vent.

    Kark, I haven't been on the Atlus forums much recently, but just so you know "I love you".

    On a more professional note, send me the Info via PM and I'll get stuff going. I'm a mod here (I think).

    Karkarov has been kind enough to loan us his Vent server for use. It has a max capacity of 50 people which I believe should more than suffice. Keep in mind he is just loaning it to us and it is not ours. For the sake of privacy I will give anyone who wishes to try it the information in a PM.

    For those who don't know.

    What is Ventrilo?
    Ventrilo is a program that allows people to physically talk to each other over the internet.

    What Do I need?
    You need a computer with internet access (I assume you have if you are reading this). You also need a microphone (attached to a headset is recommended).

    Why would I want this?
    This is a way for people that all speak the same language to converse much easier than typing. Imagine you are in a party in DS and you want to run basic strategy. You could invite everyone to your friends list, then put them in a chat room. every time you want to say something you have to press the middle button then type the info while hoping the baddies aren't killing you. Using vent its as simple as talking.

    How do I get it?
    This will be broken up into several parts.

    Click here and then select the specific CLIENT program for download. Once downloaded install it to your computer.

    Setting it up:

    Double click on the Icon on your desktop.


    From here on out click on the Red Boxes to continue.




    Input your username here. It would be preferable if you used the same one as you do in the forums.


    The other spaces can be left blank but feel free to fill them in if you want, I never was good at pheonetic spelling so I'm not even going to attempt it.




    Anything you want can go in here, it's what you want to call the server. I called it that because its for demon souls and it is provided by Karkarov.


    The IP address, Port, and Password will all be provided to you in a PM if you ask me for it. I would prefer it if nobody but I gave it out.
    (do NOT put the X's in the fields)


    If all is set up correctly you should see "MSG: Server is Availible"


    Welcome to Ventrilo, after only another short setup it will be completely ready to use.

    I always check the box because I don't want to see this every time, but its good to make sure you read every time it changes. It may inform you of new events, or of changes in rules.



    Green - Set this box to be your speakers, or your headphones (headphones preferable)
    Blue - Set this box to be your microphone
    Yellow - Click this box then press a key on your keyboard, this button will be used to turn the voice on and off. others will only hear you if this button is pressed down. (I think it can be turned off so they can always hear you, but this is inadvisable)


    Press down your specific key and your icon should turn green, congratulations, everyone in that channel can now hear you.

    Boom I told you have one, just I was messing with Karkarov because when I was testing it out he said I was gay. We can use it a bit tonight.

    I set up some extra group channels for it this afternoon as well so you guys should have some options on where to go. I will try yo hop on sometime and chat it up with you guys if I see you on once I get my headset issues fixed. Dug out my old one only to find out in the last month or so I haven't been using it something went down and now it is putting out messed up sound.

    This is a GREAT idea. LOVE to try it out. It would be nice to unplug the keyboard from the PlayStation and hear another human when I am co-ooping.
